The War Within 11.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread
Let's check this dialogue for upcoming 11.1
MMO-Champion
And here's the old --> new models for comparison.
I personally hate the new Human Male models. I don't understand why the new Human faces look like Shrek + Gaston (Beauty and the Beast). IMO, the Kalecgos model looks much more faithful to the original models, just with more defined features and textures.
What do you guys think?

I don't understand. Kalecgos looks equal to or worse than the current models...
Art team actually, but I'm inclined to agree here. Originally Posted by TyrianFC

Isn't Kalecgos mortal form that of a Half-elf?

Wow, I didn't expect so many people to like the new models. I guess i'm much more partial to Half-Elfs then lol.

Um... You know he's half-elf, right?
Soothing Mist:"Healing them for a minor amount every 0.5 sec, until you take any other action."
Jade Serpent Statue: "The statue will also begin casting Soothing Mist on your target. healing for 50% as much as yours. "
[What's half of minor?]
"Statue casts Soothing Mist at a nearby ally for toddler healing."

Well, does it matter that he's a half-elf? Maybe that is the reason why he is more "fair" looking, but i'm ok with that.

I would prefer Kalecgos to stay a unique face... because of his chin.

Yes, it does matter. You want Human males to look more like Half-Elves. Originally Posted by cletis1234

Kalecs "Human" form is actually a Half-Human.
He is Half Human/Half Elf.
That would be what makes him look a lot more.."fair" and less grizzled.There is a thin line between not knowing and not caring, and I like to think that I walk that line every day.

If anything humans should look like Tirion from ICC ending cinematic.
And I always thought that Kalec looks ugly in humanoid form. And lol on half-elf, he is still a derpy dragon, I never understood why they're so fixated on thier fake ilusionary appearance, but I suppode he did that to date Jaina :/I miss Mists of Pandaria

The only change they should make is giving the new human model an impressive chin cleft as is his right through stam bulking and testosterone.

I'm not sure if I'd class eithr as better, but the human males certainly do look like something out of the Shrek franchise

Kalec makes himself look like a half elf, and since there aren't elves and humans boinking everywhere (thankfully). Anyways it wouldn't make sense for humans to look like half elves all of a sudden.

Kalec looked good when he came out in TBC. Now he just looked dated. Same with Anduin's old model. He looked good when he goes his old model in Cata, but by WoD, he started to look terrible. Varian's is looking a bit dated, too, but chances are he's deader than a door nail in Legion anyway so guess that won't matter much.
Funny thing is, I remember when we first saw Kalec's human form in the 2.4 patch that Blizzard asked us if we'd like human males to look like that. Apparently that feedback was thrown into the trash since it took them over half a decade to finally update the humans after Kalec's first appearance.
